2.5? That's it?

Still holding at 2.5 this morning. Maybe the fact Kubiak may miss the game and who knows who will be playing QB for them is keeping it low.

They are beatable. We just need to put it together. I know some think the defense is playing well but we give up points at the worst time. Adrian Phillips sucks too. SS is a weak spot on defense. Not real thrilled with our FS's either. Hec for that matter, after Gordon our RBs suck. McCluster needs to be cut.

Well, the offense has scored more than 30 points in 4 out of 5 games, so it's hard to blame them. We knew our defense was going to suck and without Te'o, Verrett, Flowers, they look even worse than I thought they would be.

Gordon is not a great RB, but we have nothing better on the roster and there isn't anything better on waivers. What more can the offense do though, Score 40 points a game ?

One thing that is killing us is our not so special teams. Aside from the botched fg attempt we have been killed by bad punting, letting punts bounce that shouldn't, and a horrible kick return game. Those things shouldn't be that hard to correct - but we haven't been able to fix them for years.

Sometimes you wonder if they even work on it.

Our offense is putting up points, but it's mostly because Rivers is making big plays. We aren't making long methodical drives that eat up the clock. Also, we are turning the ball over on our side of the field a lot and opposing teams have been able to capitalize on it. turnover differential seems to be close, but the other team scores more points off our turnovers than we do theirs

[Mister Hoarse]

We can't execute plays when we really have to.
In any phase of the game.

#Broncos GM John Elway says Gary Kubiak will get this week off, health-wise. So he won’t coach Thursday.

Special-teams coordinator Joe DeCamillis will be the interim coach for Thursday night's game against the San Diego Chargers.

McCoy will be out coached by a Special Teams Coordinator.

Elway looked like he hadn't slept a wink at the PC. Hope Kubiak is doing ok.

Someone just jumped to the top of Dean's HC candidate list
